the tyrrany of apps

on my iphone, i have an app to read the new york times, an app to read the bbc, an app to stream al-jazeera english and an app to stream al-jazeera arabic, an app for facebook, an app for google maps, an app linked to my amazon account, an app to read the onion, an app to stream music, an app to translate foreign languages via google translate, and a bunch more. they're all really nifty, but sometimes i get tired of switching from one app to the other.

someone should come up with a universal app that would allow me to browse through all those online sites in a single program. i wish someone would do that. they could call it a "browser."
